Alex073 Posted May 23 Share Posted May 23 (edited) Hello, maybe time to introduce ourselves. we are a couple who live in southern Sweden. my name is Alex and my girl's name is Sofia ❤️ we are trying to build a business on breeding fish! My girl has previous experience with aquariums but I am quite new to this hobby but I love it. This was the most fun hobby I've ever tried. right now we are building our fishroom in her living room. not optimal but we are looking for premises to rent and may have a premises soon! All support is greatly appreciated! we dream of one day being able to do this full time ❤️ we love aquariumcoop and my new idol is Dean. he is an amazing man. great respect for his knowledge!

Next project will be setting up a new rack and try to mimic deans baby fry station. 😄 we have frys everywhere! English is not my first language so my writing is not the best maybe .. but ill do my best.. no problem with reading and listen but writing is sometimes hard 🙂 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unemployed Fish Nerd Posted May 24 Share Posted May 24 This looks really great! How many tanks do you have? And how much did it cost to set up? I'm curious as I'm currently setting up a fish breeding business myself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex073 Posted May 24 Author Share Posted May 24 @Unemployed Fish Nerd Thanks man! Yeah we won an auction and bought an old shop , so we got two racks with 24 tanks , 12 in each rack. And a hole bunch of other stuff, food, medicine, pumps, heaters, filter media and much much more. It was really cheap. We gave like 150 bucks for everything. We are setting this up in her living room and dont have room for both the racks. So now we have 12 tanks in the main rack. Yesterday we bought an another smaller rack with 6 smaller tanks. We think it would better to have the guppys in that rack. So total it is like 18 breeding tanks, those in the main rack we can devide into smaller tanks. And then we have like 10 other community tanks with different setups. We are breeding types of guppys, Sajica, Topaz, kribensis, different types of gourami, "smiling fish" , Apistogramma, different types of shrimps, corydoras and plecos. This weekend we will work with the new rack and put all the guppys there .. We have full time work so we are working with this all our free time .. all nights long and in the weekends 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unemployed Fish Nerd Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 That sounds really cool! Setting up a fish breeding business has always been a dream of mine, and I've finally been able to make it a reality. I wish you two all the good luck in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
